LAW PUBLICATION RAPIDLY
PROGRESSES UNDER STAFF
Work on the Law school y^ar book, Stare Decisis,” is progressing rapidly, eorge Koch, the editor, is working on he appointment of his staff. His plans ‘ “Stare Decisis” include, in addition the usual department, in the Law nnual, the incorporation of several ew features, which will be a big asset > the book.
Hay E. Barrett, business manager of Stare Decisis,” officially announces he appointment of Clifford Hughes as ssistant manager. Hughes, it will be emembered, was business manager f “El Rodeo ’17." In that capacity he cquired actual experience that will be }ut to good account on “Stare Decisis.” Manager Barnett, with the assist-nce of Hughes, guarantees Law chool the best annual it has ever a(l- He has the work well lined up, n(* will soon have some important nnouucements for the barristers.
Breathing football, dreaming football, talking football, and playing football, interspersed with a few choice remarks from the coach, seems to be the varsity’s chief aim in life just at present. Saturday afternoon the Trojan cohorts will see their team in action for the first game of the 1919 season, in which our somewhat boastful sagehen aspirants rather imagine that they will easily do the trick and run away with the game.
This dope spilling idea is always found, not only in the newspapers, but wit hthe teams themselves, and Pomona sure has it all doped out how shf will walk away with the Southern California Championship, demand a game with the Northern Champs and then, oh, yes, she fully expects to win that, too, play at Tournament Park in the big New Year’s fracas.
Pomona is supposed to be the best team in this neck of the woods, and she will havea chance to prove it next Saturday, when the two battling elevens tangle on Bovard field. But all this talk of a walk away is pure bunk, my friends, pure bunk. Henderson knows football, and the men under him are not all bone-heads, although the coach tells the mthey are at least twice a day. Btu that is only because they need to be told just how good they aren’t or they might develop a little of that well-known malady, which causes a silght enlargement of ahe upper portion of the body, sometimes called a head, but at others a bone.
U. S. C. has a few men at least who know a little about the noble art of negotiating with a pigskin successfully, which is just about as bad as trying to run through a Republican Congress a free trade act, and that isn’t saying much at that. With these few lowly denizens of the Trojans herd that’s speaking in the language of a Pomona-ite, U. S. C. will tackle this ownderful bunch of athletes, and, of course, be defeated like the good little boys they are. Now let us find out just how much and ho wlittle of all this junk is founded anywhere near to the facts.
At center we find that congenial gentleman called Eddie Simpson, but we strictly advise Pomona to leave out
the simp part of it; and Red Cox, who can navigate a little on his own hook every now and again.
Guards are developing fast, for another was unearthed the other day, when Chick Fox was shifted from a tackle to the guard berth. Wee Kenneth Townsend is also right there with the goods when it comes to diving under, grabbing legs an dspilling a whole line. Axe and Lindley are backup this pair, and can also move lively when necessary. Orie Hester will undoubtedly play a guard sometime during the fray Saturday, but Orie’s leg is on the blink and it is doubtful whether whether or not Orie can last out a whole game; but if he does get in we all know what he can do.
Thetackles are Jerry Clemens and Swede Evans. The Swede likes to place-kick this yer»,r. so we will promise Pomona a wonderful time in that branch of the game. Supporting Clemens we find J. Paul Beale, Bird and Robinson.
At the ends there are Jimmy Smtih, why say mo»*e? Wilcox, Toolen and Bill Isenhouer.
Walt MacMillan and Jimmy Woodward are handling the quarterback
Although the women students arc not able to yell as loud as the men, they are going to make themselves felt on Friday at the Big Rally, by displaying the Cardinal and Gold.
The executive board of A. W. S. is busy making paper crysanthemums, which will be sold in the halls and on the bleachers, Friday. They are to be sold for ten cents apiece, and every woman should have one.

R.O.T.C. SCORES WELL IN RIFLE PRACTISE
Twenty-five men of the R. O. T. C. unit under the direction of Lieut. Col. Southerland, particiuated in rifle practice at the State Rifle Range, near Glendale, last Saturday.
Machines and a truck having been obtained from the Quartermaster’s Department, the men left the military headquarters at nine o’clock, arriving at the range about ten.
Surprisingly good scores were made by all the men. Thetwo hundred and three hundred-yard ranges were fired.
“Considering the fact that few of the boys have ever fired the service rifle before, the scores are excellent and, in my opinion, average much higher than those of usual army recruits,” stated Col. Southerland. “We intend to stimulate an interest in small arms firing by having these shoots practically every week end,—after the football season is over. I will be only too glad to go with the boys any time they wish. The government, of course, furnishes rifles and ammunition gratis to all R. O. T. C. men.”
Out in Kenosha County a stick-up gent perpetrated a successful bank robbery, but several citizens gathered round and shot him ful lof holes, much to his demise. Moral—Do your bank robbing in the city. Out in the country they take it seriously.
